Stories: All : katie

I was so excited for my first show. In fact. I joined  my synchronized skating team at the last two months of the season, so I didn't think we'd even have a show! That's why I was so excited. My friends were nervous, but my nerves didn't strike me until the day of my show, at the final practice when I completely missed the wheel. I was terrified of doing that again in the show.

             Once we arrived at the new ice rink, I was extremely anxious. I couldn't even eat! Everyone told me I would do great, but of course there was that little voice in my head saying 'What if I fall? I might ruin the show for everyone!' But, once my blade touched the ice, I got my confidence.

                     We ended up doing great, of course and once it was all over, I wished I could do it again.
